The NRM leadership is now gambling with former MP Alintuma Nsambu whose relationship with Buganda Kingdom establishment is as sour as the word its self.

Sources tell us that Nsambu is expected to use his financial martial to battle it out with DP’s Mathias Nsubuga in a parliamentary by-election in Bukoto south, in Masaka district.

Meanwhile FDC is also in search for a candidate following a bitter verbal exchange with DP over EALA elections.

The seat fell vacant after the nullification of the former area MP Muyanja Mbabali over lack of enough academic papers. Nominations for the post are slated between 13^th to 14^th June, 2012.

The Director of Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) ms Jenifer Musisi Semakula is a member of the ruling National Resistance Movement as well as a civil servant. As you may know the political hatred in Uganda amongst political parties is high, no one would expect that Ms Musisi would sit in a corner with the leaders of opposition Democratic Party and talk business.

But this happened. The president of DP Norbert Mao, Legal Advisor Mukasa Denis Fred Mbidde and DP secretary general Mathias Nsubuga on Tuesday met with Ms Musisi and they discussed issues concerning reconciliation and development of Kampala.

The meeting took place at City Hall building inKampala. Top on the agenda was to forge a good working relationship between Musisi and Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago. Lukwago did not attend the meeting because he is out of the country on official assignment. Ms Musisi told the DP squad that she has no personal vendetta with Lukwago. She explained that it’s Lukwago who seems to have a personal hatred on her. Mbidde says that after they have got the side of Musisi, they will also summon Lukwago to give them his views and after they try to reconcile the rivalKampalaleaders.

Besigye, also a member of Activists for Change (A4c) was suspected by the government to have had plans of addressing a press conference on police brutality at his offices on Katonga Road in Kampala.

The sources in police told journalists that the force feared that Besigye and his cohorts were going to expose cases of police brutality in which tens of Ugandans reportedly lost their lives. The sources said exposing such information to the public raises peoples’ emotions. However, the police worked on wrong information because the said press conference was set to be addressed by the A4C coordinator MP Mathias Mpuuga but not Besigye.

We have heard from very many supporters of A4C in different parts of the country requesting the A4C leaders including Col. Kiiza Besigye (FDC), Masaka Municipality MP Mathias Mpuuga and MP Betty Nambooze (DP) among others to register A4C as a political party in Uganda.

This is because A4C has managed to bring together members of different political shades like FDC, Justice Forum, DP, Conservative Party and SDP among others.

Ugandans who believe in activities of A4C argue that it is only A4C which can unite all political forces in Uganda a thing which the now defunct Inter-party Cooperation (IPC) failed to do. So when in 2016 you see A4C as one of the registered political parties/organisations in Uganda don’t raise your eye brows and developed high blood pressure!!!

The A4C rallies were addressed by MP Mathias Mpuuga, Semujju Ibrahim, and political activists Ingrid Turinawe, Kazoora John, Jack Sabiiti and MP Roland Kaginda among others.

But the people at the rally were equally disappointed because Col. Kiiza Besigye was not at the A4C rallies in both Ntungamo and Mbarara. Besigye is currently in theUSAwhere he went to mobilize more funds to run A4C and FDC activities.

We have also learnt that Besigye has already met with key people in Barack Obama’s government, a move which has given the government officials inUgandasleepless nights.

The coordinator of A4C Mathias Mpuuga says that the group is planted in opposition to throw stones at the police such that the force gets a chance to ban the A4C rallies.

The police last week warned to ban A4C rallies on grounds that the leaders of A4C have failed to control their members from being violent.

The Inspector General of Police Kale Kayihura last week warned A4C to stop holding rallies without police permission. However Mathias Mpuuga says the government created the stone throwing group to discredit opposition.

Mpuuga says that the government and the Police own these stone-throwing men who disguise as opposition activists and throw stones at police and innocent citizens.

The coordinator of A4C, Mathias Mpuuga has told journalists that the police told them that it cancelled the rally due to security reasons.

Our reporters in the area report that   there is heavy deployment in Katwe and the nearby areas. The spokesperson of police Asuman Mugyenyi says that they have intelligence information that some elements of opposition leaders were planning to use the rally to disrupt peace.
